Dewith Boxing Studio-Olympic Journey '16
Donation protected
I am the head coach at Dewith's Boxing Studio in Mississauga and I have three Olympic hopefuls (Melinda Watpool, Jhevani Dixon, Khol Adams) that are aiming to fight at the summer olympics in Brazil.
I am looking to help fund these athletes so that they are able to represent Canada with pride. The funding needed to send an athelete to the Olympics is quite substantial and the time it takes to prepare an athelete for the Olympics is even greater. Time is needed to travel with the atheletes to different tournaments and fights across Canada and the United States. This is time that takes away from running my organization. With very little funding coming from the Canadian government most of the expenses come out of our pockets.
The last time Canada won a medal in boxing at the Olympics was in 1996 which was a silver medal. In london we have three athletes, two male and one female (this was the first year that female boxing was introduced into the Olympics).
I hope with your help we are able to make these atheletes dreams a reality.
Thank you.
Dewith Frazer.
